Assessment and Technical Investigations The following is a summary of the assessment and technical investigations carried out on Sealection Agribalance Insulation for External Walls. Page 3 of 10

4 Design Considerations 4 Use 4.1 Sealection Agribalance Insulation for External Walls is satisfactory for use in reducing the thermal transmittance (U value) and contributing to the airtightness of external walls of new and existing dwellings or similar buildings. 4.2 The product can be installed: as insulation between the inner leaf studs of conventional timber-frame cavity walls, with a clear cavity and a masonry outer skin, or as insulation applied to the internal surface of solid masonry walls in between timber battens, and finished with plasterboard, as a dry-lining system. 4.3 In all applications the product must be covered by a plasterboard lining (see section 8.3). 4.4 Constructions must be designed in accordance with the relevant recommendations of: BS 5250 : 2011 BS : 2001 BS EN : 2007, and BS EN : 2004 BS EN : 2005 BS EN : 2005 BS EN : 2006 BS EN : 2006 and their relevant UK National Annexes. 4.5 It is essential that construction elements are designed and constructed to incorporate normal precautions against moisture ingress before the application of the product. 4.6 Existing constructions must be in a good state of repair with no evidence of rain penetration or damp. Defects must be made good prior to installation. 4.7 If present, mould or fungal growth must be treated prior to the application of the product. 4.8 Installation must not be carried out until the moisture content of the timber frame is less than 20%. 4.9 The product must not come into direct contact with flue pipes, chimneys or other heat producing appliances (see section 9) The product must not come into contact with zinc or zinc plated elements, as under certain environmental conditions, the foam will accelerate the corrosion of such elements. Zinc or zinc plated elements are used as fixing for timber. In all situations when foam could come in contact with zinc, the zinc must be separated from the foam by covering the zinc plate with a suitable protective coating. The Certificate holder can advise on an appropriate coating for a particular application. The performance of such coating is outside the scope of this Certificate The product forms a strong bond with clean, dry substrates. This should be taken into account when specifying the product or anticipating future alterations To satisfy the requirements of NHBC, a VCL of a type specified in their Standards must be applied behind the plasterboard lining in wall applications. External cavity walls (insulated timber-frame inner skin) 4.13 Services which penetrate the internal plasterboard lining, eg, light switches, power outlets, should be kept to a minimum to limit damage to vapour checks. In addition, any penetrations should be either enclosed in plasterboard or stone mineral wool or suitably tested proprietary fire-rated systems in order to preserve the fire resistance of the wall. External solid masonry walls (insulated dry lining) 4.14 Insulated dry lining systems require careful detailing during installation around doors and windows to achieve a satisfactory surface for finishing. In addition, every attempt should be made to minimise the risk of thermal bridging at reveals and where heavy separating walls are attached to the external wall. New work must be designed to accommodate the thickness of the dry lining, particularly at reveals, heads, sills and in relation to ceiling height. Where the dimensions of fixtures are critical (eg bathrooms) these should be checked before installation Services which penetrate the dry lining, eg, light switches, power outlets, should be kept to a minimum to limit damage to vapour checks. 5 Practicability of installation The product should only be installed by installers who have been trained and approved by the Certificate holder (see also section 13).

5 6 Thermal performance 6.1 Calculations of the thermal transmittance (U value) of a wall should be carried out in accordance with BS EN ISO 6946 : 2007, BRE Digest 465 : 2002 and BRE Report BR 443 : 2006 using the declared thermal conductivity ( D )* of W m 1 K The U value of a completed wall will depend on the insulation thickness, the insulating value of the wall components and the internal finish. Example constructions are given in Tables 1 and 2. For improved energy or carbon savings, designers should consider appropriate fabric and/or services measures. Table 1 U values External masonry wall with timber frame inner skin Design U value (W m 2 K 1 ) Sealection Agribalance Insulation thickness required (mm) between 38 x 140 timber studs at 600 mm centres, with additional battens (1) 0.18 (2) 0.19 (2) mm + 25 mm between battens mm + 25 mm between battens mm + 25 mm between battens mm between studs only mm between studs only (1) Wall construction mm thick external brickwork = 0.77 W m 1 K 1, 50 mm clear cavity, breather membrane, 13 mm sheathing board = 0.13 W m 1 K 1, timber studs = 0.13 W m 1 K 1 (15%, maximum depth 140 mm), with additional timber battens (11.8%), vapour control layer, 12.5 mm plasterboard lining = 0.25 W m 1 K 1.

(2) For improved thermal/carbon emission performance, additional batten/insulation thicknesses may be considered. 6.3 Care must be taken in the overall design and construction of junctions with other elements and openings to minimise thermal bridges and air infiltration. Detailed guidance can be found in the documents supporting the national Building Regulations. 7 Condensation risk Interstitial condensation 7.1 Walls will limit the risk of interstitial condensation adequately when they are designed and constructed in accordance with the relevant parts of BS 5250 : 2011, Annexes D and G. Further guidance may be obtained from BRE Report BR 262 : A VCL must be used. 7.2 For the purposes of assessing the risk of interstitial condensation, a water vapour resistance factor (μ) of 6 should be taken for the product. Page 5 of 10

6 External solid masonry walls (insulated dry lining) 7.3 The risk of summer condensation on the VCL must be considered for solid masonry walls, orientated from ESE through south to WSW, in accordance with section 3.10 of BRE Report BR 262 : Surface condensation 7.4 Walls will limit the risk of surface condensation adequately where the thermal transmittance (U value) does not exceed 0.7 W m 2 K 1 at any point and the junctions with other elements are designed in accordance with the guidance referred to in section 6.3 of this Certificate. 7.5 For buildings in Scotland, constructions will be acceptable where the thermal transmittance (U value) of the wall does not exceed 1.2 W m 2 K 1 at any point, and the walls are designed and constructed in accordance with the relevant parts of BS 5250 : 2011, Annexes D and G. Further guidance may be obtained from BRE Report BR 262 : 2002 and section 6.3 of this Certificate. 8 Behaviour in relation to fire 8.1 The product is classified as Class F* reaction to fire Classification to BS EN : The product is not classified as non-combustible and must be protected from naked flames and other ignition sources during and after installation. 8.2 Elements must incorporate cavity barriers at edges, around openings and at junctions with fire-resisting elements and in cavities in accordance with the relevant provisions of the national Building Regulations and relevant purpose group. The design and installation of cavity barriers must take into account any anticipated differential movement. 8.3 When installed, the product will be contained by a suitable lining board, eg plasterboard, with all joints fully sealed and supported by timber studs or battens. Therefore, it will not contribute to the development stages of a fire. 9 Proximity of flues and appliances 9.1 When installing the product in close proximity to certain flue pipes, chimneys and/or heat producing appliances, the relevant provisions of the national Building Regulations are applicable.

The use of suitable conduit or trunking is recommended. 11 Maintenance The product, once installed does not require any regular maintenance and has suitable durability (see section 12), provided the external wall and waterproof layers are maintained in a weather-tight condition. 12 Durability The durability of the product is satisfactory and will have a life equivalent to that of the structure in which it is incorporated. Installation 13 Approved installers The Certificate holder operates an Approved Installer Scheme for this product, under which the installers are approved, registered and regularly reviewed by the Certificate holder to demonstrate that they are competent to carry out installation of the product in accordance with this Certificate. Details of Approved Installers are available from the Certificate holder. 14 Precautions 14.1 To comply with the requirements of Section 4 of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, it is essential that there is an exchange of information between the client and the installer before spray operations commence on any site. Existing health hazards and those brought into the premises by the installer should be discussed and measures agreed to deal with them effectively The process for the installation of the product may produce a build-up of harmful vapours. Installers must wear full personal protection equipment (PPE) when working with the product, including full-face fresh-air supplied respirators, Page 6 of 10

7 protective clothing and gloves. Other trades and personnel must be kept at least four metres away from the applicator while spraying is taking place. The requirements of the Demilec Agribalance Product Application Guide and the product safety data sheets issued to Installers, must be followed at all times Vapours given off by certain components are generally heavier than air and will tend to move to lower parts of the building. These parts should be suitably ventilated If vapour levels need to be measured, methods should be those recommended by the Health and Safety Executive. Certain applications, ie confined spaces, require the use of extractor fans as recommended by the Certificate holder Care should be taken to minimise the degree of overspray generated whilst spraying. This is in the form of a fine mist of particles that can travel considerable distances and will adhere strongly to surfaces they land on. 15 Procedure General 15.1 Building elements to be insulated must be assessed for suitability and any necessary repairs carried out. Elements must be weather-tight before the application of the product. The positioning and access to services should also be considered The product should be stored, handled and applied in accordance with the Certificate holder s instructions and this Certificate The product should be spray applied to clean and dry substrates and built up in layers of up to 300 mm in thickness maximum Once cured, if required the product is trimmed flat using a saw, and covered with the lining board. External cavity walls (insulated timber-frame inner skin) 15.5 The product is sprayed into the cavity formed by the studs and the outer sheathing board. When cured, if the cavity is fully-filled, the excess foam is trimmed flush with the studs and the lining board installed with a VCL with lapped and sealed joints (see Figure 1) Additional timber battens may be applied to the inner face of the timber studs if additional insulation is required, prior to application of the VCL. Figure 1 External cavity wall (timber frame) insulation between studs timber studs breather membrane vcl 50 mm clear cavity plasterboard lining brick outer skin 'Sealection Agribalance' open-cell spray foam insulation in between timber studs external sheathing board External solid masonry walls (insulated dry lining) 15.7 Installation should be in accordance with good dry lining practice and the relevant parts of the Certificate holder s literature Before applying the product, sufficient time must be allowed for damp-proofing treatments, where applied, to dry out the wall (see also, BS 6576 : 2005 for dry lining in conjunction with a chemical damp proof course application) Wallpaper, skirting, picture rails, gloss paint and projecting window boards are to be removed.
